Default If you win the lottery, would there be signs?

I wouldn’t talk about winning but this would be my sign

I'd probably buy another coffee cup if I won, which is unlikely both due to the terrible odds, and the fact that I don't buy lottery tickets.

The 1st thing that I would do is buy the 110 of land adjoining my property. And the 40 acres across the street.

I wouldn't change a thing. Don't play the lottery. Which is one reason why I'm financially fine.

Yes. "High end" escort traffic in and out of my house. Not even kidding.

They'd move in for a week and drop all clothes at the door until they walk back out.

I'd pay them to clean my house top to bottom to surgical standards. I would video the entire thing so you could all live vicariously through me. Then after a month or two, I'd buy some land, Have Lars build a house for me, and leave civilization. Off the grid.

If you won the lottery your sign would be a chain of corn dog stands from Grosse Tete to Denham Springs with flags all over the place saying Geaux Tigers.

There would absolutely be signs. Mainly in the form of giant billboards telling everyone they can now officially f**k off.

I'd be discreet, but would be taking exotic holidays by private jet. Would also consider a total preppers off-grid option, as a weekend retreat initially. Again, local folk wouldn't be aware of it & I'd certainly not be a-blabbin'

Moving to a bigger better property? Mine's good & at my age I think all that hassle wouldn't appeal. As it is, I couldn't ask for a better location. Would like a big garage like a lot of you guys have, but that would mean moving house.

The sign said, "You've got to have a membership card
To get inside"
